What a wonderful giveaway! I’d love to win because I’m planning my wedding and I’m also having so much fun that I’m considering learning how to be an event planner. This would be an amazing help for both!

I have been doing wedding invitations and papergoods on the side for the past couple of years and as time passes my passion for wedding planning and design grows and grows.

Oh my goodness, what a wonderful opportunity!!! This is my dream come true! I planned my own wedding, is currently helping my friend plan hers, and writing a budget wedding blog…and LOVING IT. However, I have no clue about the wedding biz in general and I’ve always wanted to learn the ropes from someone in the industry. I’ve even tried applying to be a wedding photographers’ intern to get some kind of hands on experience. This course would be a fantastic chance to learn from professional party planners! Eeeek!

Great articles and its really something new for me and really good update and you have really sorted mine problem because i want to course to love to learn and personally believe this course i am really love to complete.

OH EM GEE. this is beyond perfect for me! i am an interior designer by day but my true passions are wedding planning/design & event planning/design – i’m 100% positive that it is in my blood!! ask anyone, my face literally lights up when i talk weddings or party planning. from a dinner for two, to a wedding with hundreds of guests, i want to learn E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G there is to know about this field. i have the experience… but this course would take me to a whole other level! in the next year i would like to start my own party planning company, how perfect would it be to add this to my resume???

Oh, how wonderful! I’m planning my wedding now – and having so much fun planning that I’d love to plan for others! This would be precisely what I need to push me forward! 🙂 I figure my design skills, plus jewelry making skills, provide the perfect transition skills! 🙂

I’ve been doing event and wedding planning since 1994 it would be nice to have the certification to prove I do it well. Plus, I’m totally self-taught; so, it would be great to get the formal education. I’d also like to learn about new trends and how I can go from being a freelancer to a full-business model.

I have been an intricate part in planning many weddings and events but have always wanted to follow through with a formal degree. My husband and I hope to open our home and landscaped property to the public for weddings in the very near future and I hope to make this my full time job. A distance learning course would be a perfect fit for my busy life.

My wedding is officially less than 200 days away and I’m still clueless. Please help the cluelessness fade with courses on how not to be bridally clueless. Also, I’m at that age where everyone and their mother are getting (re-)married. I’d love to be able to help out!

I’ve been exploring my creative side in graphic design and other creative outlets over the past couple years and I am seriously considering a career change in the near future. A course like this would give me the boost I need to make that career change and to do something I love- planning, designing, and making dreams come true!

I would love to win this as I am an events designer in Dubai and think it would be perfect to help me progress into the creative side of weddings. We do a number of beautiful weddings every year and I long to be involved more in the creative aspect than just the planning and management side!

This would be an awesome opportunity for me . I currently have a very small wedding and event floral business. I love everything to do with weddings. I have consulted with several of my former brides on linens, decor and set up of their ceremonies and loved every minute. I have recently looked into taking a class like this but was unable to because I lost my job and just couldn’t afford it. This would provide me with a formal education in this field. My dream is to open a floral design studio with extended wedding services in my city. Brides currently go out of town for such services. What a great giveaway!

Awesome giveaway! I wanted to take a class like this but lost my day job & couldn’t afford it. I currently own a wedding and event florist. My dream is to open a design studio with extended wedding services. Our town doesn’t have such a business and brides have to go out of town. This would help my dream come true & passion for weddings live on.
